The site is fully wheelchair accessible for all guests arriving at the pier.

The best time to visit the Biosphere is during morning hours or on weekdays when foot traffic is lightest. Touring earlier in the day offers a calmer environment to observe the birds and reptiles active among the foliage. It also allows you to enjoy the spherical greenhouse before the surrounding port area gets busy.
